Michael Saylor Teases MicroStrategy’s Eighth Consecutive Bitcoin Purchase

by | June 1, 2025 - 19:41

MicroStrategy executive chairman Michael Saylor has sparked market speculation by hinting at another major Bitcoin acquisition through his characteristic social media activity. This potential move would mark the company’s eighth consecutive week of Bitcoin purchases as it approaches 600,000 BTC in total holdings.

The cryptocurrency pioneer shared MicroStrategy’s corporate Bitcoin tracker on June 1, 2025, showing 580,250 BTC worth $60.69 billion at current prices. Market observers immediately recognized this as Saylor’s established pattern preceding official purchase announcements, with seven prior instances showing identical behavior before confirmed acquisitions.

Unverified rumors from crypto analyst Crypto Rover suggest MicroStrategy might be preparing a $2 billion Bitcoin purchase, though the company hasn’t confirmed this figure. The speculation emerges just days after MicroStrategy completed a $427 million acquisition of 4,020 BTC, funded through recent convertible note offerings.

MicroStrategy’s Relentless Bitcoin Accumulation

The business intelligence firm has added Bitcoin to its balance sheet weekly since April 2025, utilizing multiple capital-raising strategies. Recent SEC filings reveal MicroStrategy raised $2 billion through debt instruments specifically earmarked for Bitcoin purchases, as first reported by CoinGape.

Key metrics in MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin strategy:

  • Total holdings: 580,250 BTC ($60.69B)
  • Weekly additions since April: 4,000-5,000 BTC
  • Average purchase price: $84,785 (last confirmed transaction)

Market Impact and Trader Response

Crypto exchanges report increased buy orders in BTC futures markets following Saylor’s social media activity. Derivatives data shows:

Metric Change
Open Interest +18%
Funding Rates 0.12% (bullish)
Put/Call Ratio 0.45 (call dominance)

Traders appear positioned for potential upside, though some analysts caution about over-leverage risks given Bitcoin’s 14% volatility index reading.

Institutional Adoption Accelerates

MicroStrategy’s strategy continues inspiring corporate adoption, with Japanese firm Metaplanet recently surpassing 5,000 BTC in reserves. Blockchain data shows:

  • 35,000 BTC withdrawn from exchanges last week
  • Institutional wallets (>$1M) grew 11% in April
  • Spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $3B weekly inflows

This institutional activity coincides with growing regulatory clarity in major markets and improved custody solutions from traditional finance providers.
